Is there a way to use bezels in windowed mode on most emulators? i Thought RL forced fullscreen if you use them.

set all emulator to windows mode and including in your setting of rocketlauncher for each system

not 100% sure though, i am sure bezel forces windows mode and not fullscreen because of layering

I checked MAME and it was already running in windowed mode.

Just tried running mame windowed with no bezels but maximized and HS still lost focus. It seems the only fix is not using HM

wouldnt rush to conclude that, if you are willing to a remote session to support you on this? i maybe able to fix it, only hit 2 out of the 4 things i believe that may cause this

[sevenseal]

what video mode is mame on, gl? d3d, and what hlsl setting are you using... using hlsl setting can force fullscreen

the picture is set to auto, which is not the samething set as one or the other

[CarloCGC]

I think Mame is set to Auto on video mode and HLSL is set to enabled. 

I am happy for you to check remotely.

i might do a session tonight after i get off work, what i would like you to do is download teamviewer from teamviewer.com, send me you id and pw from teamviewer later today in an pm

[sevenseal]

well i fixed your issue, it was rocketlauncher was not set right with your frontend.

its required the "restore and click on exit" of quit rocketlauncher to return back to HS, i left an detail note on your desktop 

[CarloCGC]

Hey SS thanks for checking that but those rocket launcher settings didn't fix the problem. HS still loses focus  I had tried those settings myself and they had no effectf. i wonder if there is a problem with my RL.

it might be, i would leave them on, i would try updating it, i notice you had a not so normal structure to have hs and rl install together.

[CarloCGC]

I have left them on this time. I meant when i tried it earlier this week i turned them off when it didnt work. 

I will try updating RL. 

I also noticed EDS is forcing my cursor to the top left of the main screen when its opened on the desktop. Is this expected behaviour?

[sevenseal]

eds doesnt do that for sure

[CarloCGC]

Definitely does for me i tested it last night. I will post a video when i get home. 

EDIT: The way i tested was this:  

Basically I wanted to know where my cursor was after opening HS with EDS and HM and I found it was top left as soon as HS opened. 

I tried opening HS on its own and cursor was middle of the screen where I left it. 

and middle of the screen with HM on its own.

I then tried EDS and everytime I opened it my cursor is sent top left (0,0).

here is my question about hs? is it set on fullscreen?

dealing with multi-screen setup, all programs need to be set as windows mode.. thats is the standard requirement and if you cant do that than a multi-screen will not function correctly

fullscreen enforces focus on certain item which causes many issue when you display something on one screen and there something else on another screen.

when you mention it throw your curser to 0,0 that is a same result when a app is open in the background when in full screen, and yes eds is being open after hs. conclusion is hs is in fullscreen mode

you have fullscreen on something, my guess is hs, and i did not check that last night

when you mention rl doesnt restore your hs on exit tell me you do not have hs and rl setup properly, meaning you dont have rl default set as hs. rl between hs something not setup right

everyone setup is different, so i cant help fix this issue until you fix the others.

[CarloCGC]

I have tried HS in windowed mode same result. As far as i can tell no other programs run fullscreen. 

As far as RL goes i am not too sure what you mean I have HS set as default frontend for RL. (HS and RL function perfectly without EDS & HM) 

beyond that you may need to have another look at my setup ( if you get time, of course )

When i said EDS is putting cursor top left, I mean when EDS is opened by itself. No Hyperspin or anything. 

Could you tell me how Rocket launcher folder structure should be organized if you think mine is wrong. I thought mine was installed to the root of my hyperspin drive as would be normal but i would have to check that to be sure. 

 

 

[CarloCGC]

Ive taken another look at my RL and HS setup and both are installed to the root of drive F: in their own folders 

‪F:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe

‪F:\Hyperspin\HyperSpin.exe

Is this correct? or is it not what you meant? 

Here is a video of EDS forcing my cursor to the corner: 

Thanks again Sevenseal.

for rl default frontend

does it do that when you dont use gui because when you run your hs it does not use gui program?

[CarloCGC]

Sorry I'm not sure what you mean by that. 

 

[CarloCGC]

Do you mean when using RL as the front end like this:

Do you mean when using RL as the front end like this:

your default should be hs not rlui

[CarloCGC]

It is usually. i have just changed it because i thought that was what you meant 

This is how it normally is:

[CarloCGC]

I think i see what you mean now and yes the cursor is moved as soon as Hyperspin and HM opens.
